Since the draftspace is not a "free" drafting space, all editors—and especially newbies who do not understand how to avoid draft deletion—should use their [[WP:User pages|userspace]] for "free" drafting instead. These [[WP:Userspace draft|userspace drafts]] should ''not'' be tagged with {{tl|userspace draft}} (or [[Template:Userspace Disclaimers|similiar templates]]), nor should they be submitted to [[WP:AFC|Articles for Creation]], as this adds no benefit and makes it more likely that the draft will be listed at [[WP:MFD|Miscellany for Deletion]] or, in the latter case, deleted per [[WP:G13|G13]] for the same reasons listed above. Completed drafts can be [[WP:MOVE|moved]] to the mainspace (turned into articles) without going through any of these channels provided that the mover's account is [[WP:AUTOCONFIRM|4 days old and has made 10 edits]]. This 4 days and 10 edits requirement should be easily reached simply by developing the draft.
The use of the draftspace, Articles for Creation, or {{tl|userspace draft}} should be reserved for cases where community feedback on the draft is desired, with the understanding that this feedback may include deletion if the draft meets any of the criteria listed above. Users currently working on pages in the draftspace should consider [[WP:USERFICATION|moving them to userspace]] if they wish to have a "free" drafting space.
Note that while a user page without the {{tl|userspace draft}} template is a good "free" drafting space, it is not okay to make user pages that are [[WP:NOTWEBHOST|unrelated to work on Wikipedia]].
